Last Vegas I actually saw this film twice because I went to the free screening too. This movie was just a blast to watch! More than just comedy this is a great story about family, friendship and loyalty.
The Best Man Holiday - This was a funny, then heartwarming, then hilarious and then brought tears to my eyes. Good Stuff!
The Book Thief- This is an Award Winning movie! We fell in love with Sophie Nélisse the main character. This is an emotional, sweet, passionate story that is filled with hope during the horrors of World War II, Germany.
Dallas Buyers Club- This was a fantastic performance by Matthew McConaughey (not in his usual pretty boy state). Jarred Leto was phenomenal too. This was based on a true story and it was Raw, Rough, Edgy and Real.
Philomena- What a pleasant surprise! We had never seen a trailer or heard about this movie and it was great! This was a gentle, fascinating, funny, heartbreaking and unforgettable film. This film brought the most discussion afterwards of how we handle forgiveness.
Frozen- Thank you Disney! I loved that that not every Princess needs a Prince. Visually Perfect! I borrowed a sassy little kid for this movie and we both enjoyed it.
American Hustle- Fantastic Cast but sloooow at times. Meh! We were a little disappointed by the story but Loved the Fashion!
Black Nativity- (Musical) There were only a few people at this show and it got poor ratings but we enjoyed it. The story and cast were good. Sweet Film!
The Wolf of Wall Street- This is an insane true story! This was a film about bad people doing bad things and cheating other while doing so. I may need to seek therapy after viewing this film and I'm not sure if it was because of the film or the fact that I witnessed it with my Mom. Powerful performance by Leonardo DiCaprio but it was painful 3 hours of Glorifying Sex, Drugs, Cursing...Sex, Drugs, Cursing... Sex, Drugs, Cursing... all while being perverted with money and greed. This movie should have been Rated "NC-17" or "R" because it was intense. Whew!
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire- I'm not a Hunger Games follower but enjoyed this movie much more than the first one.
The cinematography was beautiful, the Story and Characters were
strong! I loved the Costumes and want a butterfly dress and matching eyelashes now.
Saving Mr. Banks- Delightful and Sweet! This film was well done and full of an unexpected darker storyline. The Cast was excellent and it's a must see movie whether you're a Mary Poppins fan or not.
Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas- Get Ready to LAUGH! It is hard to believe that Tyler Perry is still bringing us Madea but the movies never disappoint. It's not Oscar worthy but if you need a few hours of entertainment and laughter go for it.
Grudge Match- I had the opportunity to view the screening of this film before it was released. I didn't have much expectation and I'm not a Stallone fan but it was fun, lighthearted and had a nice story. Better-Than-Expected-Comedy. We went in with hope and were entertained.
Spinning Plates- (Documentary) I missed this film at Full Frame but heard rave reviews so I was excited to finally see it. I was Blown Away and left the theater feeling like a better person by just watching the film. It is not just about food and restaurants. The story unfolds on many layers and is compelling and passionate.
